Humbrol AG5110 - Set of masking tapes in widths of 1 / 3 / 6 mm x 18 m

Humbrol AG5110 – precision masking tape set (1 / 3 / 6 mm × 18 m) for model painting

Humbrol AG5110 is a set of three rolls of precision masking tape in widths of 1, 3 and 6 mm, each 18 m long. It is a basic accessory for painting plastic models, useful wherever you need to protect selected areas of the model from paint or mark out a clean boundary between colours.

Specifications:

• Product: precision masking tape set
• Manufacturer: Humbrol
• Catalogue number: AG5110
• Contents: 3 rolls
• Widths: 1 mm, 3 mm, 6 mm
• Length of each roll: 18 m

Characteristics and use

The different widths let you match the tape to the task: the narrower 1 mm tape works well for fine, precise lines and small details, while the wider 3 and 6 mm tapes suit longer edges and larger areas. The tape is applied to a painted, dry surface, pressing its edges down firmly to limit paint bleed. After applying the next coat of paint, the tape is removed, ideally before the paint fully cures along the edge.

Application

The set is useful when painting plastic model kits — aircraft, vehicles, ships and figures — wherever sharp, even colour-demarcation lines are needed: camouflage boundaries, marking stripes, two-tone schemes or masking selected parts before spraying. Precision tapes of constant width are especially suited to straight edges. It is a basic item for beginners and experienced modellers alike.
